Happy International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples🎉🎊

Long before colonial borders were drawn across lands that were never theirs to claim, Indigenous peoples held knowledge systems rooted in living in balance with land, water, and one another.

That knowledge was -

[MCH Projects @mchprojects]

peoples across every continent — their sovereignty, resilience, living cultures, ancestral knowledge, and their right to determine their own futures.

Indigenous knowledge is not a relic of the past. It is living, evolving, and continuing to shape the future.

[MCH Projects @mchprojects]

Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu. We are because you are.

#MCH #MappingColonialHistory #Sawubona #Ubuntu #Restoration #August2026

[MCH Projects @mchprojects]

A new month. A new opportunity to see clearly.

As we enter August, we carry what Sawubona asks of us, to see one another fully, to refuse the distance, to stay in the work of restoration.

The colonial machine does not take a month off. Neither do we.

[MCH Projects @mchprojects]

what was severed. We build what lasts.

Happy New Month to every knowledge keeper, every healer, every artist, every ancestor-honorer, every person who chose to see when the world asked them to look away.
